Chapter 187: Insufficient Negotiation Efforts



The woman's tone of voice noticeably lowered.

The woman got up and took out silver, jewelry, and some gold and silver from a box under the bed.

"Second Brother, if you don't have enough silver on hand, I have some here."

A rough estimate would be several hundred taels.

Fu Pingan was suddenly moved, then gritted his teeth and said, "Damn old madam."

The woman felt bitter. When she first came in, it only cost a few hundred copper coins, but now the price to redeem her body was as high as a thousand taels.

However, it has only been a little over ten years.

No business in the world can compare to the exorbitant profits of the sex trade in brothels.

"Give me some time..."

...

Uncle Fu had his servants call over the second son's attendant.

The young man explained that the young master had gone to a restaurant to have dinner with his friends.

Uncle Fu stared at him and snapped, "Tell the truth!"

While the man hesitated, Fu Pingan returned.

"Father, I'm back."

Upon hearing the attendant's call, Fu Ping'an quickly came in from outside.

Uncle Fu scolded, "You unfilial son, tell me the truth! Lately, you often reek of alcohol at night and have a strange smile on your face. Tell me, where have you been?"

At this moment, Chen Xian felt slightly embarrassed in the room.

He had already guessed it.

Fu Pingan gave a stiff smile.

"Dad, Uncle Chen is still here. Please give me some face."

"You still only care about saving face?"

"I'm not afraid of losing face."

Then he looked at the entourage, leaving only Chen Xian, and had the door closed.

"Let's get down to business, Brother Chen. We'll listen to you from now on."

Seeing that both of them were breathing unevenly, Chen Xian smiled and said, "Actually, it's nothing. The main thing is, I wanted to ask if Erlang knows any women with a bold and unrestrained personality?"

Inside the room, both the father and son stared blankly at him.

Uncle Fu asked blankly, "What is a bold and unrestrained woman?"

Fu Ping'an suddenly blushed, a sheepish smile on his face: "Uncle Xian, what do you mean? Could it be that you've guessed who I'm in love with?"

After a brief silence, Uncle Fu seemed to understand something and suddenly slammed his hand on the table.

He scolded, "No wonder you often reek of alcohol at night these days. I don't want to pry into your relationship with women. Although the Fu family is not a scholarly family, you can forget about bringing a courtesan into the Fu family."

"A woman? Impossible."

*Splat*

Fu Ping looked steadily at his father and said with a smile, "Old man, can't you see the truth? It's Uncle who's asking me for a favor. In other words, you should talk to me properly now."

A moment later, the sound of tables and chairs collapsing came from the room.

The young man rubbed his reddened ears, pursed his lips, and said with lingering fear, "Dad, I admit that what I said just now was a bit presumptuous."

"You bastard."

The young man said calmly, "I can help the clothing shop organize a clothing exhibition, but I want five hundred taels of silver as payment for the event."

Uncle Fu: "It seems that the negotiation just now wasn't strong enough."
